    asking it the steps to create a bomb

    That sounds like a self-correcting issue right there

      That, and the Internet has been teaching people how to create bombs since the dial-up days. I don’t predict that LLM’s will be either a benefit or a detriment to that particular strain of natural selection.

        Is it more of a public safety issue than if they actually build a working one from a legit bomb manual and deploy it?

          No, but I think it could make the knowledge more easily available which increases the risk that it may happen.

              I think I heard about it before, but instead of having to remember that, I could just ask an uncensored LLM.

                The actual point was, bomb making instructions have been floating around on search engine results since the days of dial up. That particular manuscript itself has existed since before the days of the Internet. There’s nothing cgpt could give you that you couldn’t have found by typing the same query into Google. Getting the instructions is literally the easiest, least effort, least risk part of building a bomb.
